But trying to make enough space for the wife and bring a boat is just too much for my SRW, even with a ton of mods
How are you going to bring the boat if you are towing a travel trailer? I see almost no difference if you keep the camper and tow the boat with another vehicle or you tow a travel trailer with your truck and tow the boat with another vehicle. Apart from more space in the travel trailer than the truck camper; how does the boat fit into your need to off the camper? Why not just get a dually truck and you can still keep the camper, tow the boat, and not need to throw up in your mouth? And, yea, you will be back. Taking two vehicles to also tow your boat gets real old, real fast.
Not going to take the boat camping. We haven't in a year or more. The amount of space in the TT we just bought is what my Wife wants, and I like it too. We camp 12 months a year and we (she) will be very comfortable now and want to go even more, love getting out of the house, especially in the NW winters. We live 2 minutes from our yacht club with a private dock and boat launch which we also use 12 months a year crabbing and fishing the Puget Sound. This is just a separation of the boat and the camper which we rarely used together and was the original plan, didn't pan out. Like I said, i will probably get an older 8' camper for man trips to the Ocean or Stait of Juan De Fuca fishing, but the Wife is done with campers, i'm not. This is going to work well for us.
